Weekend Sketch challenge #8 sample card
My emails will have to wait until tonight. I have my downline and friend Stephanie over and we are stamping. Here is my card for this weekend’s sketch challenge:
I picked the color combo (River Rock, Chocolate chip, Soft Sky) from the new idea book and catalog. If you haven’t seen it, it’s simply unbelievably gorgeous. The new sets, the samples and the accesssories.
The card base is 5 1/4″ x 10 1/2″ River Rock cardstock folded in half. All stamps are from the Baroque Motifs set. I just LOVE this set! The card is pretty simple in fast! I love those! A little bling (new Jewel Brads from Stampin’ Up!), a bit of paper piercing and May Arts ribbon and I was done.
Off to make some more of those so I can send them out for my previous challenge winners.
Hugs and smiles

I love how you pulled these colors together. The Layout makes the stamp set pop. But, I do love the Baroque Motifs. I think anything you come up with is amazing!

I finally got mine posted, so even though I’m late I decided to go ahead and add my link. Several of us worked on this sketch challenge at our Friday night crop right after it was posted and what fun to see what everybody came up with! Thanks for the challenges - they are fun to do!
